DOCTOR'S HOUSE opens with a woman exploring her own brother's sexual appetites, uncovering his myriad betrayals of his wives and lovers, and of her. Nina, a reclusive copy editor,
should have better things to do than track her brother's escapades, but since her husbands death she has become solitary and defensive, and just as obsessive as Andrew.

As the novel unfolds, the story of Nina and Andrew is retold by their mother, who at once illuminates and undermines her daughter's account. Finally, the brother speaks for himself, and

their memories of the past, Nina and her mother repress them.

OVER THE COURSE OF TWENTY-FIVE YEARS, Melody Beattie has become a trusted friend for millions of readers, and in "Make Miracles in Forty Days "she offers the ultimate distillation of what she learned about gratitude, surrender, and connecting with our essential power. The power to enact change, the ability to create miracles, she argues, rests within ourselves.

In her innovative, six-week action plan, Beattie helps us establish the miracles we'd like to create and then walks us step-by-step through her Miracle Exercise, which combines the most powerful spiritual and recovery principles into a simple activity that can be done individually, with a partner, or as part of a group. Along the way, she reveals her own experiences of making miracles, and those of the participants in her Miracle Workshop. These moving stories of overcoming hardship and finding acceptance and forgiveness demonstrate that transformative change is within our reach and inspire us to move forward with a renewed vigor for life.
